Got my C&R in the mail today

Coke and rum?

Curio and Relics (C&R’s) are firearms of interest to collectors or firearms over 50 years old (such as Mausers, Mosin Nagants, etc.) An individual may apply for a C&R collector’s license from the BATF. This license allows an individual to purchase and receive C&R eligible firearms shipped directly to their home though mail order, or pick them up, without completing the background checks through an FFL holder. The license is good for three years and has a fee of $30.00. You will see in our catalog and advertising small tags next to certain guns that state “C&R Eligible”. These indicate firearms that can be sent directly to C&R collectors, but when ordered by non-licensed individuals, still must be sent to an FFL holder.

well lookie there, I learned something new today.

Hot damn. I sent mine in around a week after yours. They've done charged my CC, so I should be getting mine soon too.

Mines here now.

How'd you go about getting one in Alabama, Alahunter?

I called the ATF office and they gave me the # for requisitions in Maryland. They sent me applications within the week. They mailed an extra copy. Filled it out, sent Mike Hale the back portion, and included CC info on the form sent to the ATF. Took less than 3 weeks. I mailed it to the Atlanta ATF office, and did it with signature receipt to make sure it got there and when it did.
